No Excuses to Quit Smoking!

Most smokers are gripped by the minds splendid ability to justify its actions. So when your brain becomes reliant on a chemical to feel 'normal', its natural for a thick blanket of nonsense excuses to evolve, simply to make your conscious mind feel better about itself.

Except you know, deep down, that something is wrong, somewhere. The problem with excuses is that you know, subconsciously, that you're really addicted and thats the only real reason you smoke. For example if it wasn't for the nicotine, smoking cigarettes would be as arbitrary as blowing bubbles. But I don't know many people who do that to help with their boredom or to 'keep their hands busy'.

So what happens when you believe something consciously and know something else subconsciously? You get worried that your excuse might get rumbled, you feel anxious that you aren't fully in control and you get defensive.

So. When you're ready, and only when you're ready, find the excuses relevant to you and click...
